iPhone 12 promax camera won’t zoom

My camera .5 zoom stopped working on my iPhone 12 pro max 3 days ago. It’s, odd, when I open my camera it is automatically zoomed in at 2.0, I open first open my camera, the option for .5 zoom pops up but disappears quickly. When I hold the zoom option to manually adjust it, the farthest it will zoom out is 1.0.

The option to zoom out to .5 is only available for my time lapse, solo mo video, and panoramic camera functions but I’m not able to toggle back and forth to actually use it. Help

iPhone 12 Pro Max, iOS 14

iPhone 12 Camera Zoom Issue Hi folks! My iPhone 12 has developed an issue with its zoom on the camera. If I open the camera as normal, the picture is very, very blurred at 1x. If I click 0.5x, it’s clear but obviously very distant from the subject of the photo. If I zoom in manually, it gets to 0.9x no problem but then goes blurry when it gets to 1.0x. I don’t have a phone case, I have tried to clean the lens numerous times in and restarted multiple times. It’s definitely a software rather than a hardware issue. any ideas guys?

iPhone camera won’t zoom out to 0.5x I am having issues with the zoom on my iPhone 12 Pro Max camera. It automatically opens to x2 on both video and photo and can’t be zoomed out past x1. The three options of 0.5x 1x 2x appear momentarily when I open the app and then disappear. Portrait is stuck on 2.5x and pano can only do 0.5x and 1x. The whole app doesn't normal work. iPhone 12 Pro Max ios 15.3.1 This problem also happened on ios 15.2.1 Phone without case and accessories. The phone didn't fall. The phone has not been refurbished. The phone has never been in water or near magnets. Hard reset didn't help! Resetting the phone to factory settings didn't help! [Edited by Moderator]
